Synopsis:
The story of the Arab-Israeli War of 1967, the echoes of which are still heard today in the Middle East. In May of that year, Egypt, under President Nasser, blocked the Tiran Straits to Israeli shipping and began to gather huge numbers of troops in the Sinai Peninsula. At the same time King Hussein's Jordan allowed Iraqi troops across her borders. Israel was swift to respond to this turn of events, which she perceived as a clear threat to her security. There were devastating pre-emptive air strikes against the Egyptian air force.
Jordanian and Syrian attacks were halted and repelled; after only six short days Israel had captured East Jerusalem, the Golan Heights, the West Bank and Sinai itself. Although Sinai was returned to Egyptian control in 1979, Israel held on to her other prizes and it is these 'occupied territories' which are so much a part of the troubles that blight the region to this very day. 'Line of Fire' is history with a difference. For the first time, the great battlefields of war are presented in a unique animated environment, providing new insights into military history's most compelling events. Each powerful episode combines unrivalled graphics with atmospheric recreations to analyse every facet of famous battles from the medieval period to modern times.
